Maxisorp microplate

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States, Germany

Maxisorp microplates are a type of high-quality polystyrene microplate designed for use in various immunoassay applications. The Maxisorp surface provides a high-binding capacity for the immobilization of proteins, peptides, and other biological molecules. These microplates are suitable for a range of immunological techniques, including ELISA, cell-based assays, and other assays that require a consistent, reliable surface for capturing and detecting target analytes.

The wells of a Nunc Maxisorp microplate (460−518) were coated with an anti-human Fc goat polyclonal antibody (10 μg/mL) (Jackson ImmunoResearch, West Grove, PA, USA) at 4 °C overnight and then blocked with 0.5% BSA in PBS at room temperature for 2 h. Fc-fused proteins (1 μg/mL) were captured by the antibody, and phage solution (1.0 × 1011 pfu/mL) or biotinylated peptide solution was added to the wells and incubated at room temperature for 1 h. After three times washing with PBST, bound phages or peptides were detected using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated anti-T7 antibody (5000-fold dilution in PBS with 0.5% BSA) (Merck Millipore) and HRP-conjugated streptavidin (1000-fold dilution in PBS with 0.5% BSA) (Vector Laboratories Inc., Burlingame, CA, USA), respectively. The amount of HRP in each well was measured colorimetrically with the chromogenic reagent tetramethylbenzidine (Wako, Osaka, Japan). EC50 binding values were calculated with Prism 5 (GraphPad Software, La Jolla, CA, USA).

PilS detection was performed as previously described [20 (link)]. Briefly, bacterial cells were grown overnight in LB at 37 °C and then incubated in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Media (DMEM) containing 2% glucose in a 96-well MaxiSorp microplate (Nunc, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) in a 1:50 dilution. After 4 h of growth, the medium was removed and non-adherent bacteria were removed by five washes with phosphate-buffered saline 0.01 M pH 7.2 (PBS). Cells were fixed for 15 min with PBS containing 2% glutaraldehyde and 3 mM CaCl2 followed by a single washing with PBS. Next procedure is the blocking step with PBS containing 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 16–18 h at 4 °C in a humid chamber. The washing solution used from the blocking step between the subsequent steps was PBS—Tween 0.05% for 3 times.
After the blocking step, the cells were incubated for 1 h at 37 °C with an anti-PilS polyclonal antibody (1:500) followed by goat anti-mouse IgG peroxidase conjugate (1:5000) for 30 min at 37 °C. The reaction was developed using 0.5 mg/mL O-phenylenediamine (OPD; Sigma Aldrich Co., Saint Louis, MO, USA) in addition to 0.5-µL/mL hydrogen peroxide in 0.05 M citrate-phosphate buffer, in the dark at room temperature. The absorbance was measured at wavelength at 492 nm in a Multiskan FC (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).

Aliquots of 5 × 105C. albicans cells per well of a MaxiSorp microplate (Nunc) were grown in 100 µL of RPMI 1640 medium at 37 °C for 18 h. The cells were then washed three times with 200 µL of PBS and incubated with (i) 50 µL of 0.1 µM PPAD with 0.015 nM HRgpA and Kgp for 2 h at 37 °C or (ii) 100 µL of media collected after growth of P. gingivalis strains ATCC 33277, ∆ppad (ATCC 33277), W83, Δppad (W83) for the next 18 h at 37 °C. After washing out of the bacterial enzymes with PBS, the reactions in the wells were blocked using 300 µL of 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 h at 37 °C. Then, 50 µL of each human protein solution in the concentration range from 3.125 nM to 200 nM were added to C. albicans cells for 1.5 h at 37 °C. Bound proteins were detected with the SA-HRP/TMB (streptavidin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase/3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine) detection system and absorbance at 450 nm was measured with a Power Wave X Select microplate reader (BioTek Instruments, Winoosky, VT, USA).

The ELISA was performed by immobilizing 2 μg/ml of the immunogen onto the Maxi-sorp microplate (Nunc, Thermo Scientific) in 0.1 M NaHCO3 (pH 8.9) buffer and then blocking with a PBS/0.2% BSA solution. After washing four times with PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 (pH 7.2), the plate was then probed with the corresponding phages or antibodies and developed with the tetramethylbenzidine substrate (Cell Signaling Technology). The absorbance of the wells was measured on a plate reader (Tecan). For the phage ELISA, an anti–M13-HRP mAb (GE Healthcare Life Science, 1:5000 v/v) was used. For other ELISAs, a goat anti-human IgG HRP (BioLegend, 1:5000 v/v) was used [22] (link). The data were processed using Graphpad Prism 5.

Selection of Nbs against rStx2aB was performed with 100 µL of rStx2aB (100 µg/mL) immobilized in a well of a Maxisorp microplate (Nunc, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). After the second and third round of panning, single colonies were picked, cultured and induced with 1 mM IPTG to express the cloned Nb in the periplasm. Subsequently, the recombinant Nbs extracted from the periplasm (PE) were tested in an ELISA (PE-ELISA), to identify those clones that produce a Nb recognizing the rStx2aB antigen. The clones giving a positive signal in PE-ELISA were sent for sequencing and their predicted amino acid sequence was analyzed in silico and classified in families according to the amino acid diversity within the CDRs.

A flat-bottom, 96-well MAXISORP microplate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Darmstadt, Germany) was coated with 0.1 μL of different LV particles in 100 μL PBS-T (PBS and 0.05% Tween-20). After blocking the wells with PBS-B (PBS and 0.5% BSA), the biotinylated anti-LNGFR antibody (clone ME20.4-1.H4, Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) was added. To quantify the amount of ΔLNGFR on the vector particles, wells were incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Ely, UK) diluted 1:500 in PBS-T (PBS and 1% Tween-20). Thereafter, 1-Step Ultra TMB-ELISA substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Darmstadt, Germany) was used to develop the color reaction. At the end, 1 N H2SO4 solution was added to stop the reaction, and measurement was performed at 450 nm and 630 nm by an ELISA reader. A serial dilution from 0 to 12.5 ng human recombinant NGFR (Sino Biological, Wayne, PA, USA) was used to draw standard curve. All protein or antibody incubation steps were performed for 1 h at room temperature, followed by washing the wells three times with PBS-T. Each experiment was repeated up to nine times with technical duplicates.

Figure 2A shows the schematic representation of the developed a-PD-1 ELISA sandwich method. Briefly, 24 h before performing the assay, a flat-bottomed 96-well Maxisorp microplate (NUNC, Thermoscientific, Rochester, NY, USA) was coated with 2 μg/mL of recombinant mouse-PD-1 capture fusion protein diluted in DPBS and incubated at 4°C overnight. Afterward, the plate, washed twice with 200 μL/well of DPBS, was blocked with 200 μL/well of IB for 1 h at room temperature (RT) to prevent unspecific reactions. Then, the plate was washed five times using 200 µL/well of washing buffer (0.05% Tween-20, DPBS; WB), and the standards and experimental samples (100 μL/well) were added and incubated for 2 h at RT. For the labeling, the plate was washed and treated for 1 h with a secondary goat a-rat IgG antibody (1:20.000, v/v. IB). In order to amplify this signal, a-Goat IgG HRP-conjugated antibody was added (1:5.000, v/v. IB) and incubated for 1 h at RT.
The plate was washed and revealed with 100 μL/well of TMB for 3 min. This reaction was stopped by adding 50 μL/well of sulphuric acid (2 N), and the absorbance was read at 450 nm in PowerWave™ XS Microplate Reader from BioTek Instruments, Inc (Winooski, VT, USA).

Cell adhesion to recombinant human E-selectin (rhE-selectin) was performed with minor modifications, as previously described [15 (link)], using 2 µg/mL of rhE-selectin/Fc Chimera (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), which was incubated to a Fc antibody (Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) and was previously bound to a 96-well maxisorp microplate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). A total of 75,000 cells/well for BxPC-3 and 50,000 cells/well for Capan-1, treated and non-treated with Ac53FaxNeu5Ac, were seeded by quintuplicate into the rhE-selectin coated plates and incubated for 1 h at 37 °C. After washings, the remaining rhE-selectin-bound cells were estimated with the cell proliferation assay MTS (Promega, Madison, WI, USA), following the manufacturer’s protocol. The mean absorbance of the adhered cells was normalized by the corresponding negative control (wells without rhE-selectin). Cell adhesion was expressed by dividing the mean absorbance of treated cells by the mean of the untreated cells.
